Apple is announcing new iPhones. You can find the new flagship smartphone lineup right here:

You may not have enough money on hand to get one at launch. There's a way to alleviate that.

After Apple's big event, it's probably prudent to find out the estimated trade-in value of your current iPhone (or Apple Watch, or any other product that gets refreshed at the event) in the case that you want to, you know, get a new one.

Thankfully, that couldn't be easier to do. Apple's official trade-in website provides a full list of trade-in values for its devices.

Apple iPhone trade-in value list

  • iPhone 14 Pro Max: Up to $650

  • iPhone 14 Pro: Up to $570

  • iPhone 14 Plus: Up to $470

  • iPhone 14: Up to $430

  • iPhone 13 Pro Max: Up to $580

  • iPhone 13 Pro: Up to $480

  • iPhone 13: Up to $370

  • iPhone 13 mini: Up to $320

  • iPhone SE (3rd generation): Up to $160

  • iPhone 12 Pro Max: Up to $450

  • iPhone 12 Pro: Up to $360

  • iPhone 12: Up to $250

  • iPhone 12 mini: Up to $200

  • iPhone SE (2nd generation): Up to $80

  • iPhone 11 Pro Max: Up to $300

  • iPhone 11 Pro: Up to $250

  • iPhone 11: Up to $200

  • iPhone XS Max: Up to $170

  • iPhone XS: Up to $140

  • iPhone XR: Up to $140

  • iPhone X: Up to $120

  • iPhone 8 Plus: Up to $90

  • iPhone 8: Up to $60

  • iPhone 7 Plus: Up to $50

  • iPhone 7: Up to $40

Of course, there are caveats to this. For example, even new-ish iPhones will only get you so much, as the site lists the iPhone 14 Pro Max as having an estimated trade-in value of $650. It goes all the way back to the iPhone 7, which clocks in at a rousing $40. And yes, these are technically estimates; you could go to an Apple Store and theoretically get less than is listed here.

Point being, though, that you can at least get an idea of how much the iPhone 15 will run you with a viable trade-in. Given how much phones cost these days, that never hurts.
